Mission President Performance

Key Performance Indicators (KPIs) for each mission over time are shown below. Mission presidents are represented as a different color and hovering over each week’s KPI point in the plot shows detail regarding the data. Mission health monitoring can help identify when a mission has the chills (KPIs too low compared to historical averages or area average) or a fever (KPIs too high prompting a different kind of concern and opportunity for training). KPIs are listed below the plots and summary for convenience.

Summary of Findings

Ideally something like a summary table auto-generated to indicate mission health would be shared internally and possibly with area presidencies regularly. Below are some of my quick observations that give a flavor as to what could be provided in such a table. Comments here reflect only a portion of the missions and only a few KPIs.

• Mission A: only baptisms appear near the area average, mission president effect is very low
• Mission B: all KPIs are generally lower than area average, strong mission president effect, recent improvements made by current mission president
• Mission C: high variability in new investigators and baptism date set KPIs, generally at or below area average, mission president effect observed on all KPIs except baptisms
• Mission H: new investigators KPI is very positive, generally at or above area average on all KPIs, weak mission president effect
• Mission I: strong mission president effect observed, KPIs appear above area average, recent correction of KPIs observed, overall a very interesting and somewhat unique KPI profile
• Mission K: KPIs appear at or above area average, baptisms seem consistent but the other KPIs show a strong mission president effect

This was not an exhaustive analysis and should have been developed into a more comprehensive and cohesive table of results. Ideally those results would like directly to a visualization of the summarized content.

KPIs

KPIs available for viewing here include:

• New Investigators
• Sacrament Attendance
• Baptism Date Set
• Baptism/Confirmation

The four KPIs adjusted for the number of missionaries:

• New Investigators per Missionary
• Sacrament Attendance per Missionary
• Baptism Date Set per Missionary
• Baptism/Confirmation per Missionary

Weekly mission goals:

• New Investigators (Goal)
• Sacrament Attendance (Goal)
• Baptism Date Set (Goal)
• Baptism/Confirmation (Goal)

Percent of mission goal attained:

• Percent of Goal - New Investigators
• Percent of Goal - Sacrament Attendance
• Percent of Goal - Baptism Date Set
• Percent of Goal - Baptism/Confirmation`

Number of missionaries per mission:

• Elders
• Sisters
• Seniors
• Young Missionaries (Elders + Sisters)
• Total Missionaries (Elders + Sisters + Seniors)

Conversion Efficiency (not included in this analysis):

• New Investigators / Baptism/Confirmation
• Sacrament Attendance / Baptism/Confirmation
• Baptism Date Set / Baptism/Confirmation
